Re: Extensive flooding in Phuket
Wow, that's bad.

Re: Extensive flooding in Phuket
The reason there is so much problem with flooding in phuket is all the rice fields, marshes, where before the water buffalos roamed, have all been filled in and the water has nowhere to go.
In phuket town there are canals leading to the sea, when it rains heavily and incoming tide, the canals fill up and....
Friends in Kamala are experiencing the worst floods in 30+ years and many land slides onto the roads
sat/sunday the electricity was out for over 22 hours cause of downed electric poles
Its worse up north where they are having to open the dams flooding the nearby rice fields, they say the Chao Phraya River might overrun its banks heading into Bangkok very soon
This is sept 8th this year an they expect it to be worse this week
And still their climate change deniers out there
